一岁十岁起二宫顺行日逐人神。就甲子内检尻神者。神农之所制也。凡人年命巡行九宫
。值
医者不知此诸般避忌。趋吉避凶。妄乱针灸。非惟不能愈疾。甚者或至伤生丧命。为害非轻
。若逢病患年命厄会处。男女气怯。下手至难。通人达人若遇卒急暴患。何暇选择避忌。即
不可拘此。
按以上诸禁忌。惟四季所忌。似合素问。其余不知何时何人所起。如所谓尻神、人神者
。果
不
可晓者也。以俟能知者。

[New Diagram of Interconnected Taboos]
In spring, the location is on the left hypochondrium; in autumn, on the right hypochondrium; in summer, at the umbilicus (navel); in winter, at the waist. For men, the taboo days are "Chu" (Elimination) days; for women, the taboo days are "Po" (Breaker) days.
The first month: Mao day; the second month: Yin day; the third month: Chou day; the fourth month: Zi day; the fifth month: Hai day; the sixth month: Xu day; the seventh month: You day; the eighth month: Shen day; the ninth month: Wei day; the tenth month: Wu day; the eleventh month: Si day; the twelfth month: Chen day.
Age 1, 10, 19, 28, 37, 46, 55, 64, 73, 82: Governed by Kun Trigram (Earth), affecting the pubic symphysis and malleolus (ankle).
Age 2, 11, 20, 29, 38, 47, 56, 65, 74, 83: Governed by Zhen Trigram (Thunder), affecting the teeth.
Age 3, 12, 21, 30, 39, 48, 57, 66, 75, 84: Governed by Xun Trigram (Wind), affecting the head, mouth, and breasts.
Age 4, 13, 22, 31, 40, 49, 58, 67, 76, 85: Governed by the Central Palace, affecting the shoulder and coccyx (tailbone).
Age 5, 14, 23, 32, 41, 50, 59, 68, 77, 86: Governed by Qian Trigram (Heaven), affecting the back, face, and ears.
Age 6, 15, 24, 33, 42, 51, 60, 69, 78, 87: Governed by Dui Trigram (Lake), affecting the arms.
Age 7, 16, 25, 34, 43, 52, 61, 70, 79, 88: Governed by Gen Trigram (Mountain), affecting the waist and neck.
Age 8, 17, 26, 35, 44, 53, 62, 71, 80, 89: Governed by Li Trigram (Fire), affecting the chest and ribs.
Age 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90: Governed by Kan Trigram (Water), affecting the feet, elbows, and abdomen.
Starting from age one and the tenth palace, the Human Spirit (Ren Shen) moves sequentially along the days. The method for checking the Sacral Spirit (Kao Shen) within the Jiazi cycle was established by Shennong. The life span of ordinary people circulates through the Nine Palaces.
If physicians are unaware of these various taboos and recklessly perform acupuncture or moxibustion in an attempt to seek auspiciousness and avoid misfortune, not only will they fail to cure the disease, but it may even lead to injury or death, causing significant harm. When encountering patients whose age coincides with a period of ill fortune, especially if their constitution is weak, treatment is extremely difficult. However, enlightened practitioners facing sudden acute illnesses have no leisure to select auspicious days and avoid taboos; thus, one should not rigidly adhere to these rules in such emergencies.
Regarding the above-mentioned taboos, only those taboo in the four seasons seem to align with the *Suwen* (Basic Questions). The origins of the others remain unknown as to when and by whom they were initiated. Concepts such as the "Sacral Spirit" (Kao Shen) and "Human Spirit" (Ren Shen) are indeed obscure and difficult to comprehend. This awaits explanation by those who truly understand.
